Chapter 317 Elise Pretends to Be Crazy
After Elise returned to Snowpeakia country, she moved into a mountain villa to take care of Randall.
Kevin provided her with all the necessities.
At first, she didn't think much of it.
But later, she felt something was off.
There were bodyguards everywhere and they followed her wherever she went.
Moreover, her phone was restricted from accessing domestic websites.
She couldn't receive any news from there or contact anyone.
Even Leonard rarely called her.
She finally understood what was going on.
It turned out Derek's suspicions were correct.
Her older brother Kevin was indeed suspicious.
Elise didn't know what was happening back home; she was eager to know how Sebastian's company was doing.
She also wandered if Joyce had given birth and why she hadn't contacted her.
At noon, Elise secretly put some sleeping pills in the bodyguards' food.
While they were asleep, she secretly took one of their phones to go online.
When she saw the news online, Elise burst into tears.
It turned out Joyce's baby was gone, Sebastian had been removed from his CEO position, and Leonard had become the group president.
Seeing this, Elise basically understood the whole situation.
Sebastian and Leonard had teamed up to put on a show.
She didn't believe the two of them would turn against each other.
Seeing this, Elise felt heartbroken.
She felt painful for Sebastian and Joyce.
She didn't know how they had been coping all this time.
Two people who loved each other so much had been separated.
Thinking that all of this was caused by Kevin, Elise's hatred grew.
Now, all the problems were stuck on her past.novelbin
As long as she regained her memory, all of this could end.
Elise, determined, returned the phone to the bodyguard and went upstairs alone.
To regain her memory, the only way now was to relive the past.
Although this method was dangerous, she had no other way.
The children had paid such a high price for this matter; as an elder, she had no reason to sit idly by.
A few days later, Kevin was in a meeting when he suddenly received a call from the bodyguard at the mountain villa.
"Mr. Guise, the servant burned the pot while cooking, causing a fire. The whole villa is on fire now."
Kevin's face immediately turned cold. "Where's Elise?"
"She was sleeping on the second floor. We've rescued her, but she's not in good condition."
"What's her condition exactly?"
"She... she seems to have gone mad."
Hearing this, Kevin's hands tightly gripped the wheelchair's armrests.
The veins on the back of his hands bulged.
He immediately ordered, "Take good care of her. If anything else happens to her, none of you will survive!"
After saying this, he hung up the phone.
Kevin directly instructed his assistant to go to the mountain villa.
By the time Kevin arrived, the fire had been extinguished.
In the yard, besides the firefighters and the bodyguards, there was only a hysterical Elise.
Elise, who always cared about her image, was now disheveled, with messy hair.
She was covered in soot, and her face was dirty.
She was sitting on the ground, hitting the bodyguard in front of her.
She looked exactly like she did when she had episodes before.
Seeing this, Kevin's eyes instantly filled with coldness.
He maneuvered his wheelchair to Elise's side, his voice gentle, "Elise, it's me, Kevin."
Hearing his voice, Elise not only didn't calm down but became even more agitated.
She kept cursing, "Go away, don't touch me; you bastard, give me back my son and my husband."
Her mental state had reverted to over twenty years ago.
Kevin looked at her and pulled her up from the ground.
His voice was extremely gentle, "Elise, don't be afraid, it's me, Kevin. I'm here to save you."
Elise, with tears streaming down her face, looked at him. Her once delicate face suddenly showed a hint of malice.
She opened her mouth and suddenly bit Kevin's shoulder.
She used all her strength to bite him.
Kevin gasped in pain.
The bodyguards wanted to intervene but were stopped by him. He wanted to see if the fire had awakened Elise or driven her mad.
Elise almost bit off a piece of flesh from Kevin's shoulder.
She didn't release until she ran out of strength, then fainted in Kevin's arms.
Looking at her dirty face, Kevin's eyes were filled with complex emotions.
He asked in a deep voice, "How's my father?"
"He inhaled a lot of smoke, his condition worsened and he's been taken to the hospital for emergency treatment."
Kevin said, "Bring Elise's doctor here."
The doctor conducted a series of examinations and tests on Elise and finally diagnosed.
"Mr. Guise, Ms. Guise's condition has worsened. Her mind has been severely traumatized. I mentioned before that this therapy is extremely intense; if not managed properly, it could push her to the brink of madness." "Now her condition is not optimistic. The best-case scenario is that she becomes mentally impaired; the worst-case scenario is what you just saw, completely insane."
Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the unconscious Elise lying on the bed.
His hands tightly gripped the wheelchair's armrests and he said in a deep voice, "Is there any possibility that she's faking it?"

The doctor immediately bowed and said, "Mr. Guise, that's almost impossible. The tests we conducted are the most advanced in Snowpeakia country. We even used a lie detector. These tools can find flaws in the most cunning criminals, let alone Ms. Guise, who is just an ordinary person."
Hearing this, Kevin finally felt relieved.
"Alright, I understand. You may leave."
He slowly maneuvered his wheelchair toward Elise, gently stroking her cheek.
Kevin's voice was hoarse, "Elise, no matter what you become, I will never abandon you."
A month later, Elise's condition worsened.
She almost jumped off the building several times.
Kevin had to call Leonard.
Hearing the news, Leonard was stunned.
The day he feared had finally come.
He hurried back to Snowpeakia country, and when he saw Elise, he burst into tears.
Elise was holding a doll, kissing it and calling it baby.
She alternately cried and laughed, failing to even recognize Leonard. In her psychotic state, she hit almost anyone in sight.
Seeing Elise like this, Leonard felt heartbroken.
Regardless of Elise's curses, he tightly hugged her.
He kept calling, "Mom, it's me, Leo, your son. Don't you recognize me at all?"
Elise not only didn't respond but also punched and kicked Leonard.
Soon, Leonard was covered in bruises.
After much persuasion, Kevin agreed to let him take Elise back home.
But a nanny was assigned to her.
Leonard knew very well that this person was Kevin's spy.
So he was planning to quietly take Elise away.
After getting home, he put sleeping pills in the nanny's food. At midnight, he quietly entered Elise's room.
Seeing someone come in, Elise curled up in fear.
When she heard Leonard's voice, Elise burst into tears.
